Mini-trampolines: Do they provide a sufficient aerobic workout? MS in Clinical Exercise Physiology, December 2016, 48pp. (J. Porcari) Purpose: To determine if a mini-trampoline exercise routine from Jump Sport met guidelines set by ACSM for improving cardiorespiratory endurance Methods: Twelve male (age 20.8 ± 2.09 years) and twelve female (age 20.7 ± 1.30 years) subjects performed a graded exercise test on a treadmill. Then subjects performed the selected 19 minute exercise routine on a mini-trampoline. Physiological responses, HR and V02 were monitored throughout. Perceived exertion was recorded every 5 minutes throughout the workout and at the end using the Borg 6-20 RPE scale. Results: It was found that both %HRmax (males: 77 ± 6.3 ; females: 80 ± 7.3) and %V02max (males: 58 ± 8.4; females: 61±6.7) met the guidelines of64-94% ofHRmax and 40-85% ofV02max set by ACSM. Throughout the workout subjects considered it to be of "light" intensity when using the 6-20 Borg RPE scale (males: 11.5 ± 2.0; females: 11.6 ± 1.24). Caloric expenditure for both males (12.4 ± 1.60 kcal/min) and females (9.4 ± 0.9 kcal/min) also met guidelines for weight loss. Males had a significantly higher energy expenditure than females due to higher body mass (184.0 ± 30.70 lb vs. 142.0 ± 13 .06 lb). Conclusion: The selected JumpSport routine does meet the standards set forth by ACSM to improve cardiorespiratory fitness and to stimulate weight loss. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS To my parents, for instilling in me, from a very young age, the virtues of hard work, continuous education and caring for others.

They first emerged in 1936 as a recreational activity and sport, but have found a much wider range of uses. In WWII they were used in the training of fighter pilots (Esposito & Esposito, 2009). Trampolines supposedly helped increase spatial awareness and balance abilities of pilots. After the war, their popularity soared with many gyms and schools sponsoring competitive teams. Once their international popularity increased, trampoline competition was introduced as an Olympic event (Esposito & Esposito, 2009). Over the years a number of studies have been performed on the effectiveness of mini-trampolines as an exercise modality. In 1978, NASA concluded that trampoline training was as effective at aerobic training as running (Bhattacharya, McCutcheon, Shvartz, and Greenleaf, 1978). The researchers examined the relationship between heart rate (HR) and oxygen consumption (V02) during running on a treadmill and jumping on a mini-trampoline. It was found that both modalities maintained a similar linear relationship betweenHR and V02. Additionally, there was no significant difference in submaximal V02 between the two exercises, leading to the conclusion that the energy requirements of jumping and running are similar. McGlone, Kravitz, and Janot (2002) also reinforced the effectiveness of jumping on a trampoline in comparison to running. Their study found no significant differences in maximal HR, V02max or energy expenditure (kcal) when exercising on a mini-trampoline in comparison to running on a treadmill. 1 Conversely, Gerberich et al. (1990) had subjects perform incremental maximal exercise tests on a treadmill and a mini-trampoline. Subjects achieved higher V02max values jogging on the treadmill compared to bouncing on the mini-trampoline. Edin et al. (1990) conducted an 11-week training study using a mini-trampoline. They found no significant differences in body weight, percent body fat, and lipid levels between the training group and the control group after the training program. Although the training group did achieve a 4.4% improvement in their V02max, it was not statistically significant. Although many studies have looked at the effects of exercising on a mini­ trampoline, there is little data supporting its efficacy as a tool to increase cardiorespiratory endurance and positively affect body composition. The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends exercising at 64-94% ofHRmax or 40- 85% of V02max 5 days/week for 30-60 min/day (ACSM, 2014). Although ACSM (2014) does not have any caloric expenditure recommendations for the healthy adult, and earlier article about weight loss stated that to stimulate weight loss it is recommended that a person have a caloric deficit of 500-1000 calories/day with ~300 of those coming from physical activity (ACSM, 2011). Recently, fitness centers have begun offering group exercise classes, which lead participants through a mini-trampoline based exercise routine. The purpose of this study is to determine the intensity of an individual mini-trampoline exercise routine and compare it to the established guidelines by ACSM for cardiorespiratory endurance and caloric expenditure. 2 METHODS Subjects Subjects for this study were 24 apparently healthy college students recruited from the UW-La Crosse campus. All subjects were recreationally active (exercising at least 3 times weekly for the past

Faridabad, Haryana 2Assistant professor, Manav Rachna International University. Faridabad,Haryana 3Assistant professor, Manav Rachna International Universit, Faridabad, Haryana 4Assistant professor, Santosh Medical College. Ghaziabad Abstract The purpose of the study is to investigate whether conventional (wobble board) proprioceptive training or multi-station proprioceptive training is an effective way to improve vertical jump performance. The research study included 30 basketball players divided into the two groups, Group A (n = 15) and Group B (n = 15). The group A underwent the wobble board proprioceptive training program lasting for four weeks. The group B was administered the multi- station proprioceptive training program lasting for four weeks. Both the training programs consisted of one-leg and double-leg static and dynamic balance drills. The demands and duration of those exercises increased progressively. The vertical jump height was estimated by Sergeant Jump Test at the beginning, after second week and at the end of the experiment. The results of this study indicate that Multi-station training showed greater improvements as compared to the conventional balance training and the results were significant at p<0.01. Multi-station training consisted of gradually progressive activities on exercise mats, wobble boards, mini trampoline, thera – band and walking on uneven surface while the conventional training consisted of training on wobble boards.
